Nice to meet you MicroStack … but what is a snap?!

Snap - a universal Linux package:

• works on 42 Linux distributions
• application packaged together with its dependencies
• can be installed, upgraded and removed with a single command
• extremely secure due to their embedded nature

Edge Cloud Testing Development

OpenStack cluster in four commands (or two?)

• Control node:

sudo snap install --classic --channel edge/clustering microstack sudo microstack.init Answer the questions as follows: Setup clustering: yes Role: control Password: <some password> Control IP: accept the default

OpenStack cluster in four commands (or two?) #2

• Compute node:

sudo snap install --classic --channel edge/clustering microstack sudo microstack.init Answer the questions as follows: Setup cluster: yes Role: compute Password: <the password> Control ip: <the IP address of the control node> Compute ip: accept the default

Time for the demo!

Takeaways

• Deploying the edge infrastructure is challenging due to

the huge number of independent cloud environments

• Deploying an individual cloud environment takes time -

MicroStack is a seamless solution to this problem

• MicroStack is suitable not only for the edge, but also for

testing and development
